If metaverse depends entirely on VR sets then it's a failure, not everyone would spend thousands on VR set to experience metaverse, if this is the plan then it failed already sorry, when playstation introduced VR years ago many don't even care including myself
It will not entirely depend on VR, but I think it should an essential part, there are many way to connect the reality to virtual world, but at least one of it should be we can feel this world with an VR equipment, do you think so?
